Spertus, Spurts of Inspiration
Simmer mode – the creative juices are churning but not yet fully seasoned. I’ve been quiet here in these last few weeks. When I started this blog, a friend jokingly offered a recipe for how often to post- laundry day. Now several rounds of laundry since my last entry (one would hope so!), there are so many pots stewing that it’s hard to know where to begin. Perhaps with just a couple random instants for now.

The audience was mostly seated on stage; we could easily see each other, which made for a very personal exchange. After my talk-and-play, a lively q&a!
